Wind farms: Sleepwalking to disaster

Further to my letter of March 5, I’d like to state that those of us in and around Hameringham and Mareham on the Hill who don’t want a windfarm in our area, fully support the anti-windfarm group at Baumber and are working with them and another group at Sibsey near Boston to combat this cancerous life destroying monstrosity.

The evidence is on the web from Europe. The RAF are only informed if a full planning application is submitted.

We have the support of our local MP and it is expected that the local MEPs will also support this cause.

Professor David Bellamy the well known ecological campaigner is also expected to provide support as he does at Sibsey.

There are issues of discrimination and right to enjoy possessions under the EU Convention on Human Right, devaluation is a taking of possession which is illegal under the convention, in the national interest specified as a public emergency threatening the life of a nation.

No applications have gone in around here yet but a company has approached landowners.

We are getting prepared in case as the planning time scales are ludicrously short on such a major issue.

The planning consultation process is also a joke as Baumber have found out.

The writer last week is correct, the effects can be felt up to 15 miles away, are we all sleepwalking to disaster? Time will tell.
